Around 5 p.m. one evening, a man and his wife entered the Bluebird Bar. The man, Jack, ordered a whiskey for himself and a cola for his wife, Gail. Jack continued to order the same drinks about ½ hour.
At 11 p.m. the bar owner refused to serve Jack any more drinks because he was obviously extremely intoxicated and bothering other customers. Gail was used to Jack’s behavior and never asked her husband to quit drinking.
“Are you driving him home or should I call a taxi?” the bar owner asked Gail. Jack shouted, “Get out of my face! I’m driving home and neither of you can stop me!” Jack then shoved the owner aside and walked out of the door. The owner just shrugged his shoulders and walked off. Gail went to pay phone in the corner to call her sister for a ride.
As Jack left the bar a man walking by the bar shouted to him, “Hey, buddy, call a taxi?” When Jack drove off, the man simply shook his head and walked down the street.
Meanwhile, Jean and Carl were having a lovers’ quarrel on the next corner. The quarrel soon escalated into a major fight, and Carl struck Jean saying, “Don’t ever tell me to not touch you again. I’ll show you who’s boss here”. At that point, Jean, crying hysterically and paying no attention at all to the traffic, ran into the street in front of Jack’s car. Jack was not able to stop in time, and Jean was killed instantly.
